I have Hashimto's thyroid and Polymyositis as well as SS and was wondering if many other people also have other autoimmune conditions? There is a full list of autoimmune conditions here autolist.synthasite.com/a-t...

Hi,

I have been diagnosed with Primary SS, thyrotoxicosis (was an overactive thyroid but has burned itself out and now gone underactive) and fibromyalgia. I know they haven't declared fibro as auto-immune but it pops up so often with SS that I just thought I'd mention it.
